RB Leipzig secured their first win of the season with a 2-0 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt at home on Saturday. The match was a closely contested affair, but RB Leipzig emerged victorious thanks to a brace from Marcel Sabitzer.
The first goal came in the 68th minute when Sabitzer found space on the right side of the pitch and sent a cross into the box that was met by Yussuf Poulsen. Poulsen headed the ball back across goal for Sabitzer to finish off the chance with a powerful shot from close range.
The second goal came in the 79th minute when Sabitzer was played through on goal by Dayot Upamecano. He took a touch to get himself in the perfect position and then fired a shot past the goalkeeper to make it 2-0.
Despite the loss of two key players due to injury, Eintracht Frankfurt put up a strong fight throughout the game. They created several chances in the final third, including a shot that hit the post just before halftime.
Overall, RB Leipzig showed why they are considered one of the top teams in Germany this season. Their attacking prowess and ability to score goals is something that other teams will need to be wary of as the season progresses. With Sabitzer scoring twice, there is no doubt that he is becoming a key player for the team.
